 Posted: Mon Mar 07, 2011 4:19 pm Post subject: Exploring within my 88 Westy |
 |
|
So I am trying to sort out how to get my OBD II Cable into the cab from the engine compartment... Got that done thanks to Brady!
However during my exploration in the van I found this...
It is a propane line that runs from the main tank. It does not have a separate shut off valve and of course is located under the driver seat with the aux battery connections.
Any thoughts or ideas?

I love these "what is it " questions  My guess is the feed to a propane fired seat heater.

My thought was for something like a heater buddy...

it went to the hot water on demand tap that sits up in place of the ashtray on select model vans.
but a propane powered seat heater is likely a closer guess..
it was probably hooked to an Olympian catalytic heater at one time.
